A bomb has gone off in a market in north-western Pakistan, killing at least 16 people, police say, quoted by BBC News. The explosion took place at a bus terminal in the main bazaar in the town of Kohat, close to Pakistan’s border regions with Afghanistan. Police say a suicide bomber carried out the attack. The Taliban claimed responsibility for two blasts at a government compound in the border area on Monday which killed 40 people.
